Amazing Experience that Provided me with Clarity and Peace. I just returned from this amazing weekend retreat. Like many people I was under a lot of stress and looking for clarity, uncertain aspects of my future relationships, career, etc. I had recently watched the movie “Eat, Pray Love“. if you haven’t seen it, I would recommend it. Julia Roberts is searching for clarity and takes a trip to India, where she learns breathing techniques, meditation, etc.While I enjoyed the movie, which is based on a true story, a trip to India is just not feasible for me. But thanks to the universe, India came to me! I met Harish through this website. Having read the reviews, looking at his website and retreat offerings, it seemed to be exactly what I was looking for.I found this to be an amazing experience that provided me with clarity and peace. The website and course online as a guide to continue to practice at home are a resource I will definitely use.I also opted to complete the astrology chart, which provided valuable insights into my own behavior patterns. This will allow me to reflect and make choices differently based on this information. Harish is a great host, instructor, and cook. I enjoyed the cooking lessons as well.Accommodations were clean and comfortable. His home is set in a very peaceful setting, allowing for a wonderful space for quiet reflection.

Harish's program offers a rare blend of personal attention, deep spiritual insight, and holistic learning. With only a few students per session (I was the only one in mine), Harish provides full, undivided attention and teaches from real-life experience rather than theory. His teaching is grounded in his personal journey—learning from various Siddhas across South India. He also provided materials which are detailed and thoughtfully compiled, blending practices from Vaasi Yoga, Shat Kriya, and Panch Vayu kriya. As a bonus, the meals were exceptional—flavored with handcrafted Beyond Masalas that made cooking feel effortless. Highly recommend for anyone seeking an authentic, experiential path.

Left With Knowledge That I’ll Carry With Me For A Lifetime I went to the retreat with no expectations, other than to deepen my knowledge and find a bit of inner peace through silence. The location was wonderful, the valley is beautiful, I highly recommend taking a little walk. The food definitely exceeded my expectations: flavorful, nourishing, delicious, and beautifully presented. It was truly one of the highlights of the weekend. However, the greatest highlight was Harish himself! His warmth, kindness, and genuine willingness to help. He broke down every concept so clearly, ensuring I understood not just the theory but also how to apply it in practice. We were 2, and it allowed us to go in depth at every step.He also used this small device, EEG scanner , to scan brain electrical activity and measure concentration levels. We did the first scan on Friday and repeated it on Saturday after all the theory work , and it was incredible to see how much my concentration during meditation had improved. His guidance is truly remarkable. I left with knowledge that I’ll carry with me for a lifetime and can continue to apply as I grow.

Highly Recommended This retreat was a meaningful shift from my usual solo experiences. Sharing the journey with others reminded me of the power of community—each person’s path unique, yet connected. Harish’s gentle guidance made every activity, from cooking and resting to breathing techniques and silence, feel intentional and peaceful. The space was comfortable, the meals flavorful with his spices and herbs, and the atmosphere deeply restorative. I look forward to future retreats with more days of silence, and would highly recommend this to anyone seeking a shared experience in a smaller group. Thank you, Harish, for sharing this experience with others.

Solid Understanding of Breathwork I wanted to establish a meditation practice for myself. I liked the smaller group size and attention given to each participant and the duration was perfect for a first retreat on meditation. I developed a solid understanding of breathwork as it relates to meditation and cultivated a practice that I could use consistently at home.

I needed to learn yoga and meditation to cope with stress and to bring clarity. I chose this retreat because I wanted to immerse myself fully, away from the noise, surrounded by nature and community, to accelerate learning in ways traditional settings can't. I learned Vassi yoga and meditation, and cooking Indian vegetarian meals. Be prepared to be attentive and learn. This is a structured class with frequent breaks.

Perfect Reset Retreat for My Birthday When I was in college, I was diagnosed with attention deficit disorder (ADD) and felt like I was never sure whether or not I was meditating correctly. I am a teacher and I also really wanted to get away and refresh my mind before the new school year. Initially, I booked this retreat as a birthday gift to myself. Though I did have to drive a few hours away from my home, it was well worth it. As a mother of 2, I needed this reset. Harish understood my concern with being able to meditate, and also seeing whether or not i'm actually making progress. I use the e ee g several times and I have very tangible results that show where I started and where I ended up. My concentration level went up over 60%. I'm so grateful to Harish for not only teaching concentration, but also I learned so much about my own mind. I operate and move through conversations and situations differently since I came home. Less stress and irritation. I also learned to cook indian dishes and have already made two at home! My 11-year-old daughter keeps saying that she is "so glad I went to the cooking class". Bring home some spices!!! You will be happy you did!!! Also, there is a beekeeper who sells honey down the road. Definitely grab a jar!

Great Retreat for Learning Authentic Vaasi Yoga It was highly rated. I liked the woods and nature part in the photos. Loved Vaasi Yoga. Harish is a great teacher, and I loved his cooking too. He did the brainwave scans before and after the sessions. The progress was incredible

Thank You Harish I felt that I wasn't moving forward. This retreat offers a kind of knowing that no book can hold, no lecture can deliver, and no argument can prove. I was able to meet people and mix introspection and interaction.

I chose this retreat to help with understanding my emotions, anxiety, and the way I process my thoughts. This retreat touched on different yoga breathing techniques, meditation. This retreat made me aware of a lot of my emotions and how to work through them. I left this retreat feeling lighter mentally. Harish was so knowledgeable about the practice, great cook. The food was delicious! If you are on the journey for self-improvement and self-care… this is it!

I wanted to find inner peace. I ended up choosing this retreat because there were very good reviews. What I like the most about this retreat, Harish used an EEG scanner to monitor the electrical brain activity and the concentration levels. I was surprised to see how my thoughts were racing, but gradually through repeated sessions of breathwork, my mindbegann to settle and I was able to concentrate. I was amazed!! I came back a different person with a clear understanding of breathwork and how it's the key to deep concentration. I also gained some knowledge of the real yoga. The location was very peaceful and wonderful. Harish is a great host, very kind, patient, who makes you feel at home right away. The room was very cozy and the food was beyond my expectations. He taught me a few recipes that I tried right away at home.

Harish is an Amazing Person and Teacher I wanted to get away from personal and professional stressors and to learn a discipline that will help me navigate life more peacefully. I liked that it is geared to just 1 to 2 people at a time, so the instructor can devote more time to his students. After attending this retreat, I've continued the practice at home. I've noticed how much calmer I feel after practicing the breathing techniques. I learned a practice that I can easily continue at home, and should I need further instructions, Harish makes himself available to offer guidance when needed. Harish is an amazing person and teacher. He is very approachable, he explains the practice in a manner that makes sense. He has a passion for teaching, is a strong communicator, he is very engaging and empathetic, not to mention a great cook!

Amazing Retreat I wanted to deepen my breathwork and meditation practice. It offered an intimate environment to learn and reset. It included silence for most of the retreat which is crucial for resetting and focus. The morning breathwork (Shat Kriya) is energizing and brings to life my morning routine. Vasi Yoga helped me go deep into my breathwork. I left the retreat excited to continue the practice in my daily life! Harish is great! He developed an amazing program combining the essential aspects of his teachings into an accelerated program. Harish invited us into his home and provided comfort, great food, and a wealth of knowledge!!

Best Retreat Ever I was overworked and stressed out. I signed up for the retreat for a weekend getaway to unplug from the world around me, and this retreat gave me that and a lot more. In the end, I felt more relaxed. At the end of the weekend, my body felt healthy, my mind was clear, and I could control my breath and thoughts to reduce anxiety. The Yoga he teaches is all about the mind and how to control your thoughts and mindset. For me, this was a reset retreat. The food was amazing and he taught you how to make it.

Exceptional and Life Changing Experience I decided to go on this retreat after experiencing a breakup with a partner of 7 years about 6 months ago. I was also recently diagnosed with various mental health conditions so I needed to take a break from reality. I decided to go to this retreat because I was intrigued to learn more about the techniques and lessons offered. I also wanted to learn about my birth chart reading to see if I could discover further information about who I am and why I do the things I do. I experienced mental clarity, understanding about myself, and learned the power and importance of breathing to learn how to let go of anything that does not serve me. It allowed me to take time to reflect truly on myself. I learned to take a chance and not be afraid of what could happen. This retreat allowed me to have a complete reset mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, and guided me towards truly learning to love myself and set intentions for the future.

I came to this retreat during a deeply difficult time. I was navigating the emotional weight of a breakup and feeling overwhelmed by regret, shame, and guilt. What I found was far more than just a place to escape. It was a space to reconnect. Harish’s teachings were especially transformative. His insight about the breath being the fundamental root from which our thoughts and feelings arise gave me a new way to understand and regulate my internal world. Learning how to work with my breath helped me stay grounded, especially when my emotions felt overwhelming. Instead of spiraling into anxiety, I began to respond with greater clarity and presence. The retreat environment itself was also incredibly supportive. The setting, the structure, and the community created a safe space for honest reflection and growth. The food was another unexpected gift: nourishing, healthy, and genuinely delicious. Every meal felt like a continuation of the care and intention behind the retreat itself. This experience didn’t just help me feel better. It gave me tools I will carry forward. I’m truly grateful.

More Grounded in General My Mom and I went on this retreat due to high stress in our lives. We were familiar with meditation, but there was a disconnect. This retreat helped us connect to our breath again and remain grounded. I felt more grounded in general, learned a lot of useful information, and breathing techniques. The food was really delicious!

Harish is a great host, you can tell he really honors the practice and wants to share it with others to improve their lives. I learned a lot about mediation from him and this changed my approach towards it. The meals he made were delicious and nourishing! I was worried that the cooking would be a bit gimmicky bc he blends and sells his own spice mixes but it was not like that at all! He taught us super convenient recipes used in van life which was awesome. Lastly as a solo female traveler, I felt safe and comfortable at the retreat. My only minor complaint was that it was a little cold but other than that, good vibes all around.

Extremely knowledgeable and well-studied pranayama teacher Harish is an extremely knowledgeable and well-studied pranayama teacher and practitioner. Not only does he understand the practice the way it was taught to him by his master, but he also thinks outside the box and finds ways to explain the practice through a scientific lens, and how it fits into our lives from a greater perspective. Rather than relying on blind faith, he walks his students through why the practice works and what is happening as we feel the changes in our own bodies. Harish offers far more knowledge for a fraction of the cost of most yoga centers and teachers.

Very Grateful Harish was a great teacher and a great cook. Very knowledgeable and happy to teach others. Very down-to-earth person. It was a great experience and comfortable accommodations. I'm very happy to be a part of this journey.

The best pranayama teacher Having attended many yoga classes and pranayama/breathing I can say Harish is the best pranayama teacher I have experienced. He is systematic and explains the deeper meaning and benefits very well. I have been practicing for a few years now and seen significant improvement in my health and my overall well-being

A great teacher, very sincere, he looks out for our well-being. I have learned some breathing exercises through my different yoga classes. Still, my yoga teachers could never clearly explain the technique and what the different breath control exercises do. With Inner Transformation Yoga, right from the first day, Harish clearly explained the goal, and the path and demonstrated them with personal examples. Every breath control technique was explained clearly - what, why, how, when, and what not to do. Harish is a great teacher, very sincere, he looks out for our well-being. He inspires us to commit to the practice and keeps encouraging us. He makes sure this doesn’t just end with the 3-week instruction but goes on to become part of your life.
